Called Three Howes in AD 1435.
See (S2) which also states there was a flax retting pit here; could this explain the rectangular marks?

19 July 1994. NLA air photography.
Two ring ditches clearly visible, northern most example extremely faint - the feature appears to get increasingly faint on more recent photos - getting destroyed gradually?
A fourth possible ring ditch may exist to the south of the group - although it may be a fungus ring.
Small rectilinear enclosure visible to west of ring ditch group.
